Quantify the samples by using the unextracted external calibration curve. When spiking with labelled reference solutions, the
determination of the concentration is independent of possible errors made during injection. Also, errors caused by sample losses during distinct steps of sample pretreatment or the adjustment
of final sample extract volume as well as matrix effects in the sample are accounted for.

From July 2009 to July 2019, we sampled in
January, April, July and October, representing
winter, spring, summer and autumn, respectively
(samples were not collected in July and October
2015 because of equipment failure). Air samples
were collected continuously for 4-7 days in each
month and at 14:00 (China standard time)
simultaneously at each site every day. And they
were collected quarterly using evacuated electro-
polished stainless-steel canisters (3.2L Silonite
SummaR Style Canisters, Entech Instruments Inc.)
cleaned by a canister cleaner (Entech 3100A,
Instruments Inc., USA) with high purity nitrogen in
advance at Peking University. In urban sites,
samples were collected at a height of 2 m on the
rooftops of 8-18-story buildings (20-50m above
ground). And in suburban sites, samples were
collected at a height of 2 m above the ground to
ensure favorable diffusion of the air mass (Barletta
et al., 2006). Moreover, sampling was delayed if it
was rainy, snowy or hazy. During sampling, the
canister valve was opened slightly over 1-2 min to
ensure the surrounding air was evenly mixed.

Measurement FTIR (Infrared absorption processed via Fourier Transformation)
Mass spectrometry was used for analysis. It should be noted that during 2009-2019, three GC-MS instruments were used for analysis, which were Varian Saturn 2100 GC-MS, Varian Co. USA (2009.7-2015.4) described by Fang et al. (2012b), Medusa-6890/5975B GC-MS, Agilent Co. USA (2016.1-2017.4) described by Zhang et al. (2017), and Trace 1300 ISQ GC-MS, Thermo Fisher Co. USA (2017.7-2019.7).
Agilent gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer (GC-MS, 6890/5973N) with a custom-built adsorption/desorption system (ADS)
The UV-vis absorption spectra of PF-2M3P, PF-3M2B were measured using a spectrophotometer equipped with a 1200 grooves mm-1 grating and a charge-coupled device (CCD) camera. The collimated output of a 30 W deuterium lamp passed through a 100 cm long and 2.5 cm diameter Pyrex absorption cell equipped with quartz windows and focused onto the entrance slit of the spectrometer. Measurements were made over the wavelength region 220-400 nm by recording typically three overlapping regions of about 15 nm. Typically, each measurement consisted of 8-13 scans of diode array. The wavelength scale was calibrated using the emission lines from a lowpressure Hg pen ray lamps (253.7, 313.2, and 365 nm).
gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) preceded by on-line sample enrichment using adsorbent material. A GC-MS Agilent 6850- 5975 has been equipped with auto-sampling/ pre-concentration device (Markes International, UNITY2-Air Server2) to enrich the halocarbons on a focussing trap filled with four different adsorbing materials: Carbograph 2TD, Carbograph 1TD, Carboxen 1000 and Carbosieve SIII, and kept chilled at sub-ambient temperature by a three stage Peltier cell. One litre of ambient air is passed through the adsorbents at a trapping temperature of -30 C, and then desorbed by heating the trap at 60 C/s up to 300 C, and held at this temperature for 2 min. The separation is performed on a J&W GS-GasPro capillary column, 30 m0.32 mm I.D., at 1.6 ml min-1, at constant flow; the temperature ramp is 10 min at 49 C, then 10 C min-1, up to 250 C for a total run time of about 40 min.

FTIR (Infrared absorption processed via Fourier Transformation) 296 K over the range 500 to 4000 cm-1
The samples were analyzed using gas chromatography - mass spectrometry (GCMS) with "Medusa-GCMS" type instruments.
TFA and the internal standard [perfluoropropionic acid (PFPA)] were derivatized to the respective acid anilide in the presence of 2,4-DFAn and DCC. Samples were cleaned and reduced to 1 mL for analysis using GC-MS (QP-2010 SE, Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan) with ions of 225 and 275 amu for TFA and PFPA, respectively. GC separation was performed using a DB-5 ms column (30 m 0.32 mm 0.25 m) with helium as a carrier gas. The initial oven temperature was 50 C for 2 min, after which it was increased at a rate of 30 C/min to a maximum temperature of 215 C and then maintained at that temperature for another 10 min. The injector, transfer line, ion source, and detector temperatures were maintained at 200, 250, 200, and 250 C, respectively. Using LC-MS/MS, extracts were directly injected into LC (UFLC XR, Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan) interfaced to a 4000Q TRAP (MDS Sciex, Concord,Ontario, Canada) operated in the negative electrospray ionization mode. LC separation was performed using a Rspak JJ-50 2D column (2.0 mm 150 mm 5 m, Shodex, Showa Denko K.K., Kawasaki, Japan) at a flow rate of 200 L/min via an isocratic elution. For mobile phase A, we used 20% 50 mM ammonium acetate in water, and for mobile phase B, we used 80% methanol and 20% water. The MS/MS transition used to quantify TFA was m/z 112.9/68.9.
Gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer (Agilent 6890/5973) coupled to an adsorption desorption system (ADS). Air samples were taken every 2 h at a height of 9.4 m above ground
Gas chromatograph and mass selective detector (GC-MSD)13 as part of the Advanced Global Atmospheric Gases Experiment (AGAGE) network.
A Radiance Research M903 Integrating Nephelometer was equipped with a 530 nm (_x0003_40 nm FWHM) band-pass filter to constrain measurement wavelength. The nephelometer was modified in the laboratory to monitor the photomultiplier output pulse on a Tektronix TDS 1012B Two Channel Digital Storage Oscilloscope. Recorded measurements were peak-to-peak voltage signal of the pulsed light source. Measurements were the result of averaging 64 pulses. The peak-to-peak signal was found to scale linearly with gases of known scattering coefficient (air, CO2, R-134a) as illustrated in Fig. 1B. A IST traceable digital hygrometer (Fisher Scientific) was used to monitor the Celsius temperature and relative humidity at the outlet of the measurement cell to one decimal digit of precision. The internal pressure sensor of the nephelometer was used to monitor cell pressure to within 1 mbar. Conditions t measurement were generallyz 915-930 mbar, 21 _x0005_C, and 0.1% RH, however care was taken to always log the exact temperature and pressure data to account for differences in gas density between trials. HEPA filters were placed prior to the nephelometer purge inlet and at the outlet of the flow ystem to prevent particle contamination

For maximum sensitivity in routine field monitoring, the MS detector is operating in selective ion mode (SIM); since many compounds have similar electron impact (EI) fragmentation paths, identification and quantification are based on two mass-overcharge ratios (m/z) per compound (target ion
and at least one qualifier), in order to improve the diagnostic for determining chromatographic co-elution

115 samples of consumer products including textiles (outdoor
materials), carpets, cleaning and impregnating agents, leather
samples, baking and sandwich papers, paper baking forms and
ski waxes. The individual samples analysed were bought from
local retailers or collected by co-workers of the institute or local
clubs (e.g. ski waxes from local skiing club). The sampled
products span all quality levels from entry level to cutting edge
products. The selection of the samples occurred randomly.
na
In total 29 different samples were analysed. The sampling was concentrated on a few but wide variety of household products, such as cleaning products and polishes for indoor use and for cars and sprays to waterproof shoes or clothes, food contact
paper and baking forms included some products less commonly analysed, such as ski wax, dental floss and tablecloths. The samples were purchased in the vicinity of Oslo in supermarket chains that are found all over Norway.

Pre- treatment
na Dilution for AFFF: Pre-dilute the sample in separate steps with purified water or methanol (1:10 v/v, 1:100 v/v, 1:1 000 v/v) and mix sufficiently (e.g. 500 l sample into 4 500 l diluent). Ensure that there is no phase-separation in the sample. If necessary centrifuge the sample to precipitate non soluble particles. Dilute the pre-diluted sample 1:10 with water or methanol and an appropriate volume of internal standard solution (e.g. 100 l diluted sample, 100 l reference solution, 800 l water or methanol) to have in every dilution (1:10 v/v, 1:100 v/v, 1:1 000 v/v) the same concentration of the internal standard. Transfer an aliquot to a LC vial and analyse the sample. If high PFOS concentrations are expected, begin with the highest dilution (1:10 000 v/v) to avoid a carry over.

10 mg (accurately weighed) of ski wax spiked with 0.5 ng of
internal standards was extracted with 5 mL methanol. The wax/
methanol mixture was vortexed and extracted in an ultrasonic
bath for 20 min and then stored at room temperature overnight.
The mixture was placed in an ultrasonic bath for 20 min again
the next day and then centrifuged (3000 rpm, 10 min) to
facilitate sedimentation of the extracted solids. A 4 mL aliquot of
the supernatant was transferred to a 13 mL polypropylene tube.
The extraction of ski wax was repeated and the supernatant
solutions combined. Following extraction, the 8 mL of
supernatant was evaporated to approximately 200 L and 25 L
recovery standard (M8PFOS and M8PFOA, both 20 pg L-1) and
200 L 4 mM NH4OAc in water were added. The extracts were
then transferred to a polypropylene (PP) centrifuge tube with a

Quantification method
na
Quantify the samples by using the unextracted external calibration curve. When spiking with labelled reference solutions, the determination of the concentration is independent of possible errors made during injection. Also, errors caused by sample losses during distinct steps of sample pre-treatment or the adjustment of final sample extract volume as well as matrix effects in the sample are accounted for.
internal standardisation using mass-labeled internal standards
internal standardisation using mass-labeled internal standards
LC-MS: internal isotope-labeled standards (isotope dilution method)
identification
Quantification of all target analytes was performed using an internal standard calibration curve with nine points (0.008-150 ng mL-1, R2 > 0.99). Stable isotope mass labelled internal standards were available for C4-C6 and C8-C12 PFCAs, as well as for PFHxS and PFOS. C7 and C13-25 PFCAs, PFBS and PFDS were quantified using 13C2-perfluorohexanoic acid (PFHxA), 13C2-perfluorododecanoic acid (PFDoDA), 18O2-perfluorohexane sulfonate acid (18O2-PFHxS) and 13C4perfluorooctane sulfonate acid (13C4-PFOS) as internal standards, respectively. Reference standards for native C15, C17 and C19-25 PFCAs were not available. Therefore, for quantification of C15, C17 and C19-25 PFCAs the relative response factors (relative to 13C2-PFDoDA) were calculated from the calibration curves of C14, C16 and C18 PFCAs, respectively. All reported concentrations for C15, C17 and C19-25 PFCAs should thus be considered as semi-quantitative estimates due to the lack of authentic native standards for these compounds. The method detection limit (MDL) was defined as the lowest calibration point concentration resulting in a signal-to-noise ratio of three, if the specific PFAS were not detected in the blanks. For the analytes which were detected in the blanks, MDLs were defined as the mean blank concentration plus three times the standard deviation of the blank.

Pre- treatment
Dilution for AFFF: Pre-dilute the sample in separate steps with purified water or methanol (1:10 v/v, 1:100 v/v, 1:1 000 v/v) and mix sufficiently (e.g. 500 l sample into 4 500 l diluent). Ensure that there is no phase-separation in the sample. If necessary centrifuge the sample to precipitate non soluble particles. Dilute the pre-diluted sample 1:10 with water or methanol and an appropriate volume of internal standard solution (e.g. 100 l diluted sample, 100 l reference solution, 800 l water or methanol) to have in every dilution (1:10 v/v, 1:100 v/v, 1:1 000 v/v) the same concentration of the internal standard. Transfer an aliquot to a LC vial and analyse the sample. If high PFOS concentrations are expected, begin with the highest dilution (1:10 000 v/v) to avoid a carry over.

10 mg (accurately weighed) of ski wax spiked with 0.5 ng of
internal standards was extracted with 5 mL methanol. The wax/
methanol mixture was vortexed and extracted in an ultrasonic
bath for 20 min and then stored at room temperature overnight.
The mixture was placed in an ultrasonic bath for 20 min again
the next day and then centrifuged (3000 rpm, 10 min) to
facilitate sedimentation of the extracted solids. A 4 mL aliquot of
the supernatant was transferred to a 13 mL polypropylene tube.
The extraction of ski wax was repeated and the supernatant
solutions combined. Following extraction, the 8 mL of
supernatant was evaporated to approximately 200 L and 25 L
recovery standard (M8PFOS and M8PFOA, both 20 pg L-1) and
200 L 4 mM NH4OAc in water were added. The extracts were
then transferred to a polypropylene (PP) centrifuge tube with a
nylon membrane filter and centrifuged at 13000 rpm for 5 min.
The filtered extract was transferred to an autosampler vial and
stored at 4 C until analysis.

LC-MS: internal isotope-labeled standards (isotope dilution method)
Quantification of all target analytes was performed using an internal standard calibration curve with nine points (0.008-150 ng mL-1, R2 > 0.99). Stable isotope mass labelled internal standards were available for C4-C6 and C8-C12 PFCAs, as well as for PFHxS and PFOS. C7 and C13-25 PFCAs, PFBS and PFDS were quantified using 13C2-perfluorohexanoic acid (PFHxA), 13C2-perfluorododecanoic acid (PFDoDA), 18O2-perfluorohexane sulfonate acid (18O2-PFHxS) and 13C4perfluorooctane sulfonate acid (13C4-PFOS) as internal standards, respectively. Reference standards for native C15, C17 and C19-25 PFCAs were not available. Therefore, for quantification of C15, C17 and C19-25 PFCAs the relative response factors (relative to 13C2-PFDoDA) were calculated from the calibration curves of C14, C16 and C18 PFCAs, respectively. All reported concentrations for C15, C17 and C19-25 PFCAs should thus be considered as semi-quantitative estimates due to the lack of authentic native standards for these compounds. The method detection limit (MDL) was defined as the lowest calibration point concentration resulting in a signal-to-noise ratio of three, if the specific PFAS were not detected in the blanks. For the analytes which were detected in the blanks, MDLs were defined as the mean blank concentration plus three times the standard deviation of the blank.

Dilution for AFFF: Pre-dilute the sample in separate steps with purified water or methanol (1:10 v/v, 1:100 v/v, 1:1 000 v/v) and mix sufficiently (e.g. 500 l sample into 4 500 l diluent). Ensure that there is no phase-separation
in the sample. If necessary centrifuge the sample to precipitate non soluble particles. Dilute the pre-diluted sample 1:10 with water or methanol and an appropriate volume of internal standard solution (e.g. 100 l diluted sample, 100 l reference solution, 800 l water or methanol) to have in every dilution (1:10 v/v, 1:100 v/v, 1:1 000 v/v) the same concentration of the internal standard. Transfer an aliquot to a LC vial and analyse the sample. If high PFOS
concentrations are expected, begin with the highest dilution (1:10 000 v/v) to avoid a carry over.
no extraction
1 mL sample was added into a TOP assay reagent of 9 mL containing 0.066 M of K2S2O8 and 0.15 M of NaOH in a
15 mL centrifuge tube. The mixture was then heated at ~85 C for ~6 h in a temperature-controlled water bath. After the oxidative reaction step, the sample was cooled down to room temperature. The pH of the sample was adjusted to pH 5-9 with concentrated HCl to halt the TOP assay reaction (optimal at pH> 12) and enable the app-based test (optimal at neutral pH). To further halt the reaction, the
sample was treated for ~10 min with ultra-sonication. The samples were then stored at 4 C prior to analysis

Quantify the samples by using the unextracted external calibration curve. When spiking with labelled reference solutions, the determination of the concentration is independent of possible errors made during injection. Also, errors caused by sample losses during distinct steps of sample pre-treatment or the adjustment of final sample extract volume
as well as matrix effects in the sample are accounted for.
Method is applicable for a concentration range for PFOS in the extract
solution of 0,5 g/l to 50 g/l.

A limitation of the FAB-MS/QTOF-MS method is that it can only capture the major
components and that minor (approximately <0.1%) fluorochemical compounds may go undetected
The recovery of labelled reference compound
shall be in the range from 70 % to 125 % for the
sample to be considered valid. The dilution error
introduced by this method should be much
smaller than the analytical error involved in the
method. As a general rule the dilution error
should be less than 1 %.
na
For quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC), at least three samples were run in parallel for each test including one for the ``Before'', one for the
``Control'' and one for the ``After'' sample. Moreover, TOP assay results using HPLC presented in this work were also validated with assistance from ALS Global, to compare with the results in our laboratory, including using HPLC and app-based sensors. Laboratory duplicate, method blank, laboratory
control spike and matrix spike were generally conducted to monitor the test recovery and the acceptance limits
The possible reasons for the variations:
(i) further oxidation might release an ultrashort chain of PFAS that currently cannot be quantitatively monitored; (ii) incomplete oxidation of PFAS precursors due to the presence of organic matter; (iii) the random nature of TOP assay oxidation that can be affected by many
parameters, including the TOP assay reagent amount and the initial concentration of PFAS.
As standard procedure,
laboratory blanks, method detection limits (MDLs)
and recoveries were examined. For each sample, a
high resolution full scan spectra was used to
control positive detections (typical mass tolerance
50 ppm). No laboratory contamination for any of
the analyzed compound was detected

An Agilent 1260 series RPLC was used to perform chromatographic analyses. The analytical separation was achieved using an Agilent Poroshell 120EC-C18 (3.0 50 mm, 2.7 m) column maintained at 30 C. A delay column (Agilent Eclipse Plus C18, 4.6 50 mm, 5.0 m) was installed after the mixing valve of the binary pump. The second valve was switched at 4 min. For chromatographic elution, the mobile phase was composed of acetonitrile (ACN) and water with 0.05% formic acid, and the flow rate was 0.30 mL min-1 . The gradient elution profile was programmed as follows: 0-4 min, 5% ACN; 4-9 min, 5-60% ACN; 9-16 min, 60-100% ACN; and, 16-21 min, 100% ACN. A 9 min re-equilibration period was included before the next analysis, resulting in an overall method run time of 30 min An Agilent 6470 triple quadruple mass spectrometer with a Jet Stream electrospray ionization (ESI) source was operated under dynamic multiple reaction monitoring (DMRM) mode with a retention time (RT) window of 1-2 min.

Detection of PFASs was carried out using a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (Xevo TQ-S, Waters Corp, Mil_x0002_ford, MA) operated in negative electrospray ionization mode according to a method reported by Gebbink et al TF and EOF measurements were carried out at SU using a Thermo-Mitsubishi combustion ion chromatograph (CIC). Sample extracts (100 ml) were placed in a ceramic sample boat containing glass wool for better dispersion of the uids while neat CP material was weighed directly into the sample boat. All boats were baked prior to sample combustion to minimize background contamination. The samples were combusted slowly in a combustion furnace (HF-210, Mitsubishi) at 1100 _x0004_C under a ow of oxygen (400 l min_x0001_1 ) and argon mixed with water vapor (200 l min_x0001_1 ) for approximately 5 minutes.

PFHxS,
PFHpS, PFOS, PFDS, PFOA, PFNA, PFDA, PFUnDA,
PFDoDA, PFTrDA,
and 6:2diPAP were detected in 75-100% of the
serum samples. PFHxPA,
8:2diPAP, PFHxA, PFOSA, and PFBF were detected
in 52-68% of the
serum samples, while MeFOSA, 8:2PAP, 6:2PAP,
PFPeA, and PFTeDA
were detected in 3-29% of the samples. Some
chemicals (PFOPA,
PFDPA, PFHxA and EtFOSA) were below the LOD in
all serum samples
On average, they were found at 5.7, 1.7, 0.9,
and 0.8 ng/mL in females and 9.3, 2.1, 1.3, and 1.1 The accuracy of the method ranged between 90%
ng/mL in males
and 114%
six other PFAS (e.g., PFBS, PFHxA, PFOA, PFOS, PFNA, and PFUnDA) were detected in surface water at concentration below 18 ng L-1 . PFOAwas the only PFAS detected in the DWTP influent. Besides the six PFAS mentioned above, PFPeA, PFHpA, PFDA, and 6:2 F-53B were also detected in WWE at concentrations ranging from 2 to 48 ng L1
accuracy with 82% of analytes exhibiting 70-130% recovery linearity (R2 was higher than 0.984 Analyte recovery and intra-day precision were evaluated in triplicate Recovery was determined by comparing the concentration measured by the online SPE-LC-MS/MS
method, calculated using the calibration curve for ultrapure water (above), with the initial spiking levels. recoveries of 70-130%. The intra-day precision of each analyte at the three spiking levels was evaluated as the relative standard deviation (RSD) of the replicate measurements. The inter-day precision was reported for each matrix as the RSD of 15 replicates magnitude of MEs on ESI for some analytes
Foundations and powders
contained 25 different PFASs with the most frequently detected being perfluorinated carboxylic acids (perfluoroheptanoic acid and perfluorohexanoic acid) and polyfluoroalkyl phosphate esters (PAPs). S14PAP concentrations up to 470 mg g_x0001_1 creams, pencil and shaving foams did not contain measurable concentrations of any of the 39 PFASs
targeted. The highest TF concentrations were found in powders (547-19 200 mg g_x0001_1 ), closely followed by creams (<LOD - 11 100 mg g_x0001_1 ) and foundations (326-3120 mg g_x0001_1 ).
PFASs measured by LC-MS/MS, triplicate spike/ recovery experiments were performed by fortifying a PFAS-free cosmetic (FOUN07) at two fortication levels Method accuracy, as assessed through spike/recovery experi_x0002_ments, ranged from 71 to 126% for most
PFASs Results of the inter-laboratory comparison on a subset of 18 samples (unfortied) revealed good agreement between labs, with a coefficient of determination of 0.9605 for 11 targeted PFAS measuremen
foundations, mascaras, and lip products had the highest proportion of products with high total fluorine 0.384 g F/cm2 PFAS concentrations ranged from 22-10,500 ng/g product weight

Quantify the samples by using the unextracted external calibration curve. When spiking with labelled reference solutions, the determination of the concentration is independent of possible errors made during injection. Also, errors caused by sample losses during distinct steps of sample pre-treatment or the
adjustment of final sample extract volume as well as matrix effects in the sample are accounted for.

(249 mg of C8F17/ m2)
Laboratory background contamination was monitored by including procedural blanks (30 mL of MilliQ water; n = 3) with every TOP assay batch. A triplicate control of textile in milli-Q water without addition of oxidant was also performed with every TOP batch. Finally, to ensure the efficacy of the TOP assay when processing unknown textiles, samples of the
nonfluorinated textile (1A) were spiked with 30 ng of individual PFAA precursors (6:2 and 8:2 fluorotelomer sulfonates; both n = 3) in methanol, dried, and then subjected to the TOP assay. TF measurements were analyzed together with a certified reference material (BCR-461, fluorine in clay), which showed good zgreement with reference values [average of n = 3 replicates
= 552 7.3 (standard deviation) mg of F/kg vs a reference of 568 60 mg of F/kg]
The inefficiency of the TOP assay for oxidizing SFPs is also a notable area for improvement (e.g., by modifying the

treat mostly domestic water but also industrial
wastewater (Table 1). In addition, a target
industry's (metal plating) wastewater was
sampled four times. Storm water, landfill
leachate and municipal sewage sludge were
sampled twice. Storm water was collected from
the Porolahti creek, where the storm water
sewage gathers urban runoff from an indus-
trial area. The sampling times were November
2009 and April 2010. Landfill leachate was
sampled from the equal- ising tank at
mmssuo waste disposal site in October 2009
and June 2010. MWWTP3 sludge was sampled
in January and June 2010. The wastewater of
the target industry is treated in MWWTP3, and
the landfill leachate in MWWTP2. All treated
effluents are discharged into the Gulf of
Finland except MWWTP1, which is discharged
into the Archipelago Sea (Gulf of Bothnia).
Wastewater and landfill leachate were
collected as 24 h composite samples into high-
density polyethylene containers. The MWWTP
samples were adjusted to flow rate, and kept
at +4 C during sampling. Landfill leachate and
IWWTP1 sam- ples were adjusted for time

Depending on the aqueous matrix, different volumes of water were extracted. In case of surface- and sewagewater, 50 mL water was extracted, while 250 mL was used for seawater samples. The 13Clabelled internal standards were supplemented to every sample prior to
extraction to a final concentration of 100 ng L-1. Solid-phase extrac- tion was carried out using OASIS HLB cartridges (6 cm3, 200 mg, Waters, Milford, MA). The cartridges were pre-conditioned with 2 mL methanol and 2 mL Biosolve water. After loading, the car- tridges were rinsed with 2 mL Biosolve water for surface- and
sewagewater. For seawater, 3 2 mL Biosolve water was applied. Subsequently, the cartridges were dried under vacuum for 10 min. Elution was achieved using 2 2 mL methanol. Next, extracts were concentrated to 0.5 mL under a gentle stream of nitrogen. Finally, 0.5 mL of 2.5 mM ammonium acetate in water was added before transfer to LC-MS vials.
Samples were stored at 4 C before analysis.
The samples are analysed in the unfiltered state. The pH WAX (weak anion exchange)
value of the sample should lie in the range between pH 6 Solid Phase Extraction (Use at least 60 mg
and pH 8 and shall be adjusted with sodium hydroxide of the solid phase material (7.3) for a
solution or sulfuric acid, if necessary
sample volume of e.g. 50 ml)
When preparing the sample, observe the specifications of the Sewage Sludge Ordinance (AbfKlrV) and the Federal Soil Protection Ordinance (BBodSchV). A
sufficiently homogeneous laboratory sample must be available for taking a partial sample (test sample). Observe the specifications according to DIN 19747 for taking partial samples. The sample must not be dehydrated before homogenization, e.g. by centrifugation, as the soluble fraction of some PFCs cannot be neglected. Homogenize water sediments and thin-bodied sewage sludges by stirring and take a subsample, if necessary
with continued stirring. For soil, compost, pressed sludge and animal feed, reduce laboratory sample according to DIN 19747, e.g. by means of cross-rugation divider (8.6). Sort out foreign materials and record gravimetrically; if necessary, examine these materials separately. Take a partial sample and dry it; measure the partial sample in such a way that, if possible, at least a dry mass
of 5 g can be expected. The subsample must be representative of the laboratory sample and, for soil samples, should be at least 1/4 of the mass of the laboratory sample. In the case of homogeneous, fine-grained and free-flowing materials, the subsample may be less. Preferably freeze-dry sewage sludge according to DIN 38414-22 (8.5), other samples if necessary at 40 C in a drying oven, depending on the water content.

Sonication with MeOH
50-mL subsamples (n = 3/time point) were
adjusted to pH 7 using ammonium
hydroxide and then spiked with
isotopically labeled internal standards.
Oasis WAX cartridges (Waters, 150 mg, 6
cc) were preconditioned with 5 mL of 0.1%
ammonium hydroxide in MeOH, followed
by 5 mL of MeOH and 5 mL of Millipore
water prior to use. Samples were loaded at
a rate of 1 drop/second, and then
cartridges were washed with 5 mL of 0.1%
ammonium hydroxide in water. PFASs
were eluted with 14 mL of acetonitrile
(ACN), followed by 5 mL of 0.1%
ammonium hydroxide in MeOH, and the
na
eluants were combined.
Samples of 250 mL of wastewater were
successively passed through 2.6mm and
0.3mm glass-fiber (GF/F) membrane filters
using a Nalgene filtration unit. Extraction
of the suspended particulate matter (SPM)
was conducted according to a sediment
extraction procedure adapted from Bertin
et al. . Briefly, filters were sonicated twice
with 5 mL of MeOH (20 min). Extracts were
cleaned-up with graphite (0.25 g), and
evaporated to dryness under a N2 flow
and moderate heating (40 C). After
reconstitution in 250mL of a 20 ng mL-1
internal standard solution in EtOAc,
extracts were sonicated, vortexed and a
200mL aliquot was transferred to a 1.5 mL
glass vial. The extraction of the
wastewater filtrate was conducted as
follows: Strata X-AW cartridges were
conditioned with 8 mL of MeOH/ NH4OH
0.2% in water (v/v) and 2 4 mL of HPLC
water. After sample loading, cartridges
were rinsed with 5 mL of HPLC water, dried
for 1 h under vacuum, and centrifuged (3
min, 5000 rpm). Analytes were recovered
with 2 4 mL of MeOH/NH4OH 0.2% in
water (v/v), the eluates being directly
passed through graphite cartridges
(coconut charcoal, 2 g) previously
conditioned with 10 mL of MeOH. Extracts
were finally evaporated to dryness and

the small amount of particles (less than
200 mg L-1) present in the leachate. After
centrifugation, the supernatants of
leachate samples were spiked with internal

The sample preparation and extraction method has been described by Chu and Letcher, 2017; Chu et al., 2016, with some modifications: The sample
was spiked with internal standards and ultrasonicated and extracted three times by 4 mL 0.2 % formic acid in ACN solution each time at 60 C. The extracts were combined, concentrated to 2 mL and diluted by 8 mL water. The diluted extract was cleaned up and fractioned by Oasis WAX SPE cartridges (60 mg 3 cc, Waters
Limited, ON, Canada).
A sample volume of 0.25 L was adjusted to
pH 6.5 with formic acid or ammonia and
pressure-filtered through a 0.7 m glass
fiber filter (Whatman). Isotope-labeled IS
(103 total, 100 ng, details in the SI) were
spiked to each sample prior to enrichment
with mixed-bed multilayer solid-phase
extraction cartridges comprising Oasis HLB,
Isolute ENV+, Strata-X-AW, and Strata-X-
CW (exact details in Kern et al.19) via
vacuum extraction at 10 mL/ min. The
analytes were then extracted from the
dried cartridges with a 6 mL basic (2% of
25% ammonia) followed by a 3 mL acidic
mixture (1.7% of 100% formic acid) of ethyl
acetate/methanol (50:50 V/V). The neutral
combined extract was concentrated to 100
L under a gentle nitrogen stream,
adjusted to 1 mL with HPLC-grade water,
filtered through a 0.45 m regenerated
cellulose filter into a 2 mL vial and stored
na
at 4 C prior to analysis.
and then 4 mL of Millipore water, the
cartridges were loaded with 500 mL of
water sample at a flow rate of one drop
per second. After percolation, the
cartridges were washed with 4 mL of 25
mM ammonium acetate buffer (pH 4) in
Millipore-water and centrifuged at 3000
rpm for 2 min. The PFASs were then eluted
from the cartridges with 4 mL of methanol,
followed by 4 mL of 0.1% ammonium
hydroxide in methanol. The samples were
concentrated to 1 mL under a gentle
nitrogen stream and transferred to brown
amber vials for instrumental analysis.
For extraction of solid and plant samples, 3
g of each of the pooled samples were
weighed into a 50 mL PP-tube and 2 mL of
a 100 mM sodium hydroxide in methanol/
Millipore water solution (80/20, v/v) were
added. The mixture was left to stand for 30
min and then 20 mL of methanol and 100
L of IS mixture (c = 20 pg L-1) were
added. The mixture was shaken in a wrist-
action shaker for 60 min at 200 rpm and
centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 5 min. The
supernatant was then decanted into a new
PP-tube. This procedure was repeated
once again by adding 10 mL of methanol to
the original PPtube, shaking for 30 min at
200 rpm and centrifuging at 3000 rpm for
5 min. The supernatant was then decanted
into the new PP-tube, 0.1 mL of 4 M
hydrochloric acid was added and the tube
was shaken by hand and centrifuged at
3000 rpm for 5 min. The sample
wasconcentrated under a nitrogen stream
na
to 1 mL.
Particulate matter was removed by centrifugation
Solid-phase extraction (SPE) was done as described (Becker et al. 2008), modified as follows: to waste water 250 L of a 100g/L mixture of 13C-PFOA and 13C-PFOS each, to river water 100 L of a 10-g/L
mixture of 13C-PFOA and PFOS each was added.
Each IIL sampler was rinsed with distilled
water to remove the materials adhering to
the membrane surfaces and then vacuum
freeze-dried. Then, the sampler was
disassembled, and the IIL-silica gel or HLB
sorbent powder was transferred carefully
into an all-glass syringe (3 cc) previously
blocked with glass fibre cotton on the
bottom. Additional glass fibre cotton was
pressed tightly on the powder. After that,
the sorbent powder was eluted with 6 mL
of elution agent (methanol containing 5%
ammonium hydroxide). Procedural blanks
were performed by pretreating the unused
sor- bents (IILs and HLB) in the same
process as the samples, and were
examined together with samples to control
for potential contami- nation from
laboratory materials and solvents.

(63-93% of PFAS). In freshwater samples from the Longyear river and the reference site, PFCA C9 were the predominant PFAS (37-59%), indicating that both local point sources and diffuse
sources contributed to the exposure of the marine food web in the fjord. PFAS concentrations increased from zooplankton (1.1 0.32 g kg-1 ww) to polychaete (2.8 0.80 g kg-1 ww), crab (2.9 0.70

Measurement
The concentration-decay technique was used to determine the air exchange rate in a room. The method is based on an initial injection of tracer gas to simulate refrigerant leakage, R134a was injected into the chamber with all the dampers closed and fans off. SF 6 was also released in the chamber in order to compare the accuracy of R 134a measurement of air exchange rates. A desk fan was used to assist the mixing of tracer gases and air in the chamber over a period of 10 min. Once a uniform concentration of tracer gases was achieved, dampers at the supply and extract ducts were opened and the fans were switched on. Monitoring of the concentrations of R 134a and SF 6 tracer gas then commenced simulta_x0002_neously at the centre of the chamber, using a multigas analyser,

Sampling
water sampling
surface water samples (5 L for each sampling point) were taken from the Oujiang River, at Wenzhou city, China the vicinity of where the discharge from a municipal WWTP enters the river. This WWTP is known to receive wastewater from the electroplating industry, where both F-53B and PFOS are assumed to be in use. Wastewater samples were also collected "upstream", at a small WWTP which treats the raw effluents of electroplating plants before they enter the municipal sewer system.
25 samples collected from fume suppressant products and effluents at 11 chrome plating facilities in Michigan
Household products included impregnation agents (n = 60), cleansers (n = 24), polishes (n = 18), lubricants (n = 7). A miscellaneous category of products (n = 23) was defined by various applications that included foamsuppressing agents for the chromium industry, paints, ski wax, inks and tanning substances.

The purity of the three PFOS products was 76.7-80.6%. The major impurity in the PFOS products is PFOA, which contributes more than 10%. Other impurities include perfluorohexane_x0002_sulfonate (PFHxS), perfluorohexanoate (PFHxA) and perfluoroheptanoate acids (PFHpA). The percentage of linear PFOS (n-PFOS) in the three products was 66.2-71.9%, similar to that in the product manufactured by 3M (70.3%). The purity of the five PFOA products was relatively high (94.0-95.8%), and the major impurity was PFOS (2.06-3.09%). The percentage of n-PFOA in the five PFOA products was 76.4-77.9%, which was similar to that in the 3M PFOA (78%)
Substantially elevated PPFAS concentrations downstream of tributary 4 demonstrated that the emissions from this FP manufacturer dominated total riverine discharges. Isomer profiles of per_x0002_fluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) in water displayed a stepwise increase in percentage branched PFOA down_x0002_stream of tributary 3 (14.0%) and 4 (22.7%) reflecting the importance of FP sources PPFAS concentrations ranging from 36.5 to 496 000 ng/L. PPFASs in sediment ranged from 0.333 to 4100 mg/kg dw and PFOA was the main homologue (18.1e95% of PPFASs).
The total concentrations of PFASs (PPFASs) ranged from 1.74 to 172 ng/L, with perfluorooctanonate (PFOA) as the dominant compound (15.2% Unmix, was introduced to identify the sources of PFASs in the surface water, and the results indicated that fire-fighting foam/fluoropolymer processing aids (36.6%) trace the manufacturing sources of PFOA. Electrochemical fluo_x0002_rination (ECF) was the major PFOA manufacturing source with considerable contribution by telomeri_x0002_zation.
Perfluoroalkyl sulfonates (PFSAs) were lower than perfluoroalkyl carboxylates (PFCAs) in all samples, and short-chain (C4-C6) PFCAs were predominant. Perfluoroalkyl phosphonates and phosphate diesters were occasionally detected, but at low detection frequency. Branched isomers of perfluorobutanesulfonate (PFBS) are reported for the first time, accounting for 15-27% of total PFBS in water. An enrichment of isopropyl_x0002_PFOA (28%) was found in WWTP influent, suggesting its manufacturing primarily by isopropyl telomerization. PFOA was still a major chemical in use at this site, primarily from isopropyl telomerization.

Results showed that performance, in terms of recovery, differed between the extraction methods for different PFAS; different extraction methods resulted in different EOF concentrations indicating that the choice of extraction method is important for target PFAS and EOF analysis. Results of maternal serum samples, analyzed in two different laboratories using two different extraction methods, showed an accordance of 107.6% ( 21.3); the detected perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) in maternal and cord serum samples were in the range of 0.076 to 2.9 ng/mL.

Sampling
sample amount used
8.2.1. The sample handler must wash their hands before sampling and wear nitrile gloves while filling and sealing the sample bottles. PFAS contamination during sampling can occur from a number of common sources, such as food packaging and certain foods and beverages. Proper hand washing and wearing nitrile gloves
will aid in minimizing this type of accidental contamination of the samples. 8.2.1. Open the tap and allow the system to flush until the water temperature has stabilized (approximately 3 to 5 min). Collect samples from the flowing system. 8.2.2. Fill sample bottles, taking care not to flush out the sample preservation reagent.
Samples do not need to be collected headspace free. 8.2.3. After collecting the sample, cap the bottle and agitate by hand until preservative is dissolved. Keep the sample sealed from time of collection until extraction
250-mL
Take, preserve and handle samples as specified in ISO 5667-1.
For sampling, use thoroughly cleaned bottles . Fill the bottle
only to the shoulder with the water to be sampled
(approximately 1 000 ml). In the presence of free chlorine,
immediately add approximately 80 mg of sodium thiosulfate
pentahydrate or another suitable dechlorinating agent (e.g.
sodium sulfite).
nearest 1 g
Grab samples are collected in polypropylene containers.
Other types of container materials, such as high-density
polyethylene (HDPE), may be used if performance is
acceptable for the project. PTFE containers and contact
surfaces with PTFE should be avoided. Depending on the
needs of the project, field blanks may be required and should
be collected according to recommended PFAS sampling
practices, where available. The samplers should acquire pre-
verified reagent water and containers from the analytical
laboratory for preparing field blanks, where practical.
Aqueous field samples and associated QC samples must be
collected in separate containers, including field blanks,
MS/MSDs, and duplicates. Volumes collected for water
samples should match volumes consumed in the laboratory's
preparation procedure. Conventional laboratory practices
involving chain of custody, field sampling, laboratory custody
beginning with receipt and transfer custody, and sampling
protocols should be followed.

received by the laboratory within 48 hours of collection. The laboratory must confirm that the sample temperature is 0 - 6 C upon receipt. Once received by the laboratory, the samples must be stored at -20 C until sample preparation.
8.3 Solid (soil, sediment, biosolid), excluding tissue 8.3.1 Collect samples as grab samples using wide-mouth jars
and fill no more than full (see Section 6.1.1.2 for container size and type). 8.3.2 Maintain solid samples protected from light (in HDPE containers) at 0 - 6 C from the time of collection until receipt at the laboratory. The laboratory must confirm that the sample temperature is 0 - 6 C upon receipt. Once received by the laboratory, the samples must be stored at -20 C until sample preparation.
8.4 Fish and other tissue samples The nature of the tissues of interest may vary by project. Field sampling plans and protocols should explicitly state the samples to be collected and if any processing will be conducted in the field (e.g., filleting of whole fish or removal of organs). All field procedures must involve materials and equipment that have been shown to be free of PFAS. 8.4.1 Fish may be cleaned, filleted, or processed in other ways
in the field, such that the laboratory may expect to receive whole fish, fish fillets, or other tissues for analysis 8.4.2 If whole fish are collected, wrap the fish in aluminum foil or food-grade polyethylene tubing, and maintain at 0 - 6 C from the time of collection until receipt at the laboratory, to a maximum time of 24 hours. If a longer transport time is necessary, freeze the samplebefore shipping. Ideally, fish should be frozen upon collection and shipped to the laboratory on dry ice.
8.4.3 Once received by the laboratory, the samples must be maintained protected from light at -20 C until prepared. Store unused samples in HDPE containers or wrapped in aluminum foil at -20 C
Aqueos samples: Typical sample size is 500 mL; however, sample size may be up to 1000 mL, Solid samples: The maximum sample weight for sediment or soil is 5 g dry weight. The maximum
sample weight for biosolids is 0.5 g dry weight. The default sample weight for tissue is 2 g wet weight; however, a 1-g sample may be used.
This method involves collection and recovery of trace concentrations of semivolatile organic compounds.
Therefore, field sampling and recovery staff must be trained in the best practices for handling and using organic solvents in field environments to recover and protect samples from contamination.

Standards and samples shall be in a 50:50 methanol:water solution containing 0.1 % acetic acid. When preparing the sample, observe the specifications of the Sewage Sludge Ordinance (AbfKlrV) and the Federal Soil Protection Ordinance (BBodSchV). A sufficiently homogeneous laboratory sample must be available for taking a partial sample (test sample). Observe the specifications according to DIN 19747 for taking partial samples. The sample must not be dehydrated before homogenization, e.g. by centrifugation, as the soluble fraction of some PFCs cannot be neglected. Homogenize water sediments and thin-bodied sewage sludges by stirring and take a subsample, if necessary with continued stirring. For soil, compost, pressed sludge and animal feed, reduce laboratory sample according to DIN 19747, e.g. by means of cross-rugation divider (8.6). Sort out foreign materials and record gravimetrically; if necessary, examine these materials separately. Take a partial sample and dry it; measure the partial sample in such a way that, if possible, at least a dry mass of 5 g can be expected. The subsample must be representative of the laboratory sample and, for soil samples, should be at least 1/4 of the mass of the laboratory sample. In the case of homogeneous, finegrained and free-flowing materials, the subsample may be less. Preferably freeze-dry sewage sludge according to DIN 38414-22 (8.5), other samples if necessary at 40 C in a drying oven, depending on the water content.

Two extraction solvents were used, (A) aqueous acetic acid (1% v/v) and (B) 90:10 (v/v) ethanol:aqueous acetic acid (1% v/v). A series of ultrasonication solvent extractions were used
All of the fish samples with the procedural blank salts were extracted with acidified acetonitrile The samples were extracted with methanol/ 200 mM ammonium acetate mixture by shaking and vortexed for 5 min. The PP tubes were then placed in an ultrasonic water bath for 20 min at 30C and then centrifuged for 20 min at 4000 g. The supernatant was transferred to another PP tube, and the samples were extracted three times. The extracts were evaporated to dryness under N2 gas and reconstituted with 1.5 mL of a 99:1 (v/v) methanol/glacial acetic acid mixture.

Plant material was spiked with a defined amount of IS and mixed with 0.8 mL of MeOH and 0.8 mL of ultrapure water (+1% (v/v) formic acid). The obtained suspension was agitated for 15 min using a reciprocating shaker and sonicated for another 15 min. After centrifugation (15 min, 4695g), the supernatant was transferred to another 15 mL PP centrifuge tube. This procedure was repeated twice with fresh extractant to optimize the extraction yield
After spiked standards were allowed to equilibrate with individual food matrices for 12 h, 4 mL of basic methanol was added for extraction, followed by vortexing for 30 s, sonicating for 30 min, and centrifuging at 4000 rpm for 10 min. The 12 h equilibrium time was selected on the basis of previous studies. The supernatant was decanted into clean 15 mL polypropylene tubes. After 3 extraction cycles, 13 mL of supernatant (first supernatant) was collected for each sample. The extracts were stored at -20 C for 12 h to precipitate any starch present and then centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 10 min to separate solids.

A set of 11 isotope-labeled PFAS (listed in Table S.1) was added as surrogate recovery standards to 0.5 g of homogenized matrix (fish fillet or serum) prior to extraction with 3 mL of methanol followed by ENVI-Carb activated carbon powder cleanup.
Clean up
Concentrate the extract to dryness under a gentle stream of nitrogen in a heated water bath (60-65 C) to remove all the water/methanol mix. Add the appropriate amount of 96:4% (vol/vol) methanol:water solution and the IS PDS to the collection vial to bring the volume to 1 mL and vortex.
Add 4 ml of acetate buffer solution to the dried cartridge and discard the eluate. Then elute the target analytes with 4 ml of methanol, followed by 4 ml of 0,1 % ammonia/methanol (5.9) at a rate of one drop per second. Evaporate the eluate with a gentle stream of nitrogen gas (5.11) to a final volume of 500 l.
Sample cleanup - Cleanup procedures should not be necessary for relatively clean sample matrices. Extracts from highly contaminated environmental, waste or biota samples may require additional cleanup steps prior to analysis to meet acceptance criteria for all QC categories. The specific cleanup procedure used will depend upon the analytes of interest, the nature of the interferences, and the DQOs for the project. At the time of publication, no cleanup methods have been validated in conjunction with this determinative method.

Mean PFAS concentration in the landfill leachate
was 643 84 ng L-1, while it was 365 8.0 ng L-1 in
a freshwater pond and 57 4.0 ng L-1 in a creek in
the vicinity of the FFTS. These levels were an order
of magnitude higher than in coastal seawater of the
nearby fjord (maximum level PFAS = 10.1 1.2 ng
L-1, at the FFTS impacted site). PFOS was the most
predominant compound in all seawater samples and
in freshly fallen snow (63-93% of PFAS). In
freshwater samples from the Longyear river and the
reference site, PFCA C9 were the predominant
PFAS (37-59%), indicating that both local point
sources and diffuse sources contributed to the
exposure of the marine food web in the fjord. PFAS
concentrations increased from zooplankton (1.1

REVIEW - In this comprehensive review, a
Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response (DPSIR)
framework has been proposed to understand PFAS
from the source of emission and their impacts on the
environment. DPSIR framework is a conceptual
model used to describe, analyze, and understand
environmental problems.
Different treatment strategies for the removal of
PFAS are discussed in this review.
